Voiden Faker

The Voiden Faker core plugin enables developers to generate dynamic, realistic test data directly inside Voiden HTTP requests. It integrates seamlessly into the request lifecycle, allowing any text field to be populated using Faker.js expressions.

Type: Core Plugin

Voiden Faker enhances the request-building experience by letting users embed Faker.js function calls inside request bodies, headers, params, and other supported fields.

Example usage:

{{$faker.person.firstName()}}
{{$faker.internet.email()}}
{{$faker.location.city()}}

These values are automatically evaluated during the pre-send stage of the request pipeline.
